I would like to install the R5D1 version, but am having problems with the boot. It is assigning my drives /dev/hde,f,et...instead of /dev/hda. I've tried the no dma option, but it doesn't work either. any suggestions to get it to label them as /dev/hda, hdb,hdc...etc. thanks. |

How about a little more data on your rig and configuration? /dev/hda -/dev/hdd are usually related to the ide controller. Are these ide drives? How are they installed? |

The drives are ide drives and if I install Fedora Core 3 then they are detected as /dev/hda. I just have one hard drive in the machine until i get it installed, then I will put the other drive in to mount as /myth or something else. |

when the boot is flying by, it spits out that DMA acceleration is turned on and defines all my IDE devices starting at /dev/hde instead of /dev/hda. I don't want to turn off DMA acceleration, but don't know why it's labeling my drives starting at hde instead of hda. TIA |

HI, You may want to check the jumper on the drive to be set as master and should connect to the last cable connection, on the mobo ide1 port. I recall seeing this issue before on the forum so it may take some digging but the answer is here, somewhere. Mike |

Fixed it. It turns out that the motherboard had RAID enabled on it. I guess the newer kernels detects that and jumps over to /dev/hde instead of /dev/hda. anyway, disabled onboard raid and all works now. 
PVR350, PVR250, hd3000, and PVR350 TV-out all working like a charm. I'm back in business!!! |
